Yes. I remember the original author admitting that this was really just a short story for practice.


Stop. I want to believe this is real.

edit: Actually working in corporate America I can believe this is real aside from the nobody knowing you. You can have a manager and they can know you do nothing but they can't get rid of you.


I'm sure it's happened in real life before, but I strongly feel that this particular story was just an exercise in creative writing. Just pay closer attention to the writing style vs other personal accounts.


Oh I know. This story had me hooked. I couldn't stop reading it.


I was buying it until the part about him catching a VP in the act.
